Olinguito
- Discovered: 2013
The Olinguito can be found in South America, usually in the montane forests within the Andes. Usually, they are centered around Columbia and Ecuador more often than not but can drift to other places off and on. This species is also part of the raccoon family, and officially became a new species in 2013. The name comes from the Spanish word for fog or mist, due to the fact that the species is found in cloud forests. It was the first new carnivoran mammal discovered in the Western Hemisphere in roughly 35 years!
